Roger Taylor - Bohemian Rhapsody?
Sammet has a Bb, let me find it...

Oh yeah, I had Taylor already, mentally anyway.

"Crawl thru Fire" 3.45 wasn't that Bb5?

I'm like 98% sure it was an A.

Bb from here...

Hm ah dunno...Most of that is an F#.
As awesome as his As are, I'm surprised that's his only Bb.

Yeah, I think there is a huge difference between his A's and his Bb... You're right, the Bb is shorter than I remembered, it's not the right choice for the compilations..

You got a link for that one?
I'll be back soon with some good Vitas B5s for your consideration.

A link for what?

Cedric's - you said you hadn't got a response.

Bb5:
Beaker (The Muppets) - Bohemian Rhapsody http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgbNymZ7vqY 2:50

Vitas B5s:
Ulybnis! (Smile!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRfJA-TyolI 1:49 (goes up to C6 then back to B5. This is the one jowox used for his B5 video on YouTube).
Lie, Ciocarlie (Lark, Skylark) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pX8V8oRKzDs 3:19 - impressive, but not really his best tone imo.
Opera #1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-wNH-k5Hpo 2:38
and my top recommendation: Tibetan Plateau http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFzqw9Hbmfs 3:15 (the highest note in the run starting about 3:09) - gorgeous.

Other B5s:
Von Smith - Walk Away http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5v-RTCZjhU 5:36
Alessandro Moreschi - Ave Maria http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slhhg8sI6Ds 2:40 As disturbing as it is to think about the reason for his ability, I think his high B is worthy of inclusion.

Oh. Don't worry, I took care of it :tiphat:

I didn't think the tone on Skylark was bad at all. I think that sounds the best out of them.

I didn't think it was bad either, but I thought Tibetan Plateau was better.

I can't believe I forgot abut this: Benny Davis (The Axis of Awesome) - Take On Me (4 chords medley) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMshvUReunc B5 @ 4:11. Seriously.

Can I hear the Cygnus B(b?)5? I have that list of songs where he hits B(b)5 but they're all in really long songs.

Speaking of Cygnus, Geddy's Bb5s on Cygnus X-1?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OnFKTNC77I 9:20 or so ..... Bb or A

An A... wicked note though. According to my list Cygnus... Vismund Cygnus has a B5 and a Bb5 somewhere... my version is 13 minutes.

Edit: Bb5s at 9:01-9:09 of my version, just before the A5 section you linked. Not too great though. Another Bb5 at 8:17 of Day of the Baphomets, maybe some short ones in a harmony earlier.

Sherick · **Posted:** Sat Oct 16, 2010 8:07 pm

I made it. Bbs at the beginning. As always, I can still edit it if anyone feels something glaring is missing
